Product Description

Der Freischütz is a German opera with spoken dialogue. It premiered on 18 June 1821 at the Schauspielhaus Berlin and is considered to be the first German  Romantic opera. The overture is in sonata form and may be regarded as a compressed tone poem about the Freischütz story. The arrangement is kept in the  original key of the composition for symphony orchestra and was commissioned and first time performed (without Euphonium and Tuba) by Mozarteum Wind  Philharmonic Salzburg conducted by Hansjoerg Angerer at their "New Year's Concert" on 6 January 2008 at the Great Hall of the Mozarteum Foundation in  Salzburg, then again at their "Three Kings' Concert" on 6 January 2018 at the "Grosses Festspielhaus" (Large Festival Hall) in Salzburg, Austria and  broadcasted live by Austrian television. A further repetition at the same event on 6 January 2024 again with live TV, now under the new name Salzburg Wind  Philharmonic underlines the great appreciation for this arrangement shown by the orchestra and conductor. Live recordings of the 2018 and 2024 concerts  are available at  https://www.salzburg-windphilharmonic.at/de/durch-die-waelder-durch-die-auen/ or https://www.jpc.de/jpcng/classic/detail/-/art/durch-die-waelder-durch-die-auen/hnum/10428715?iampartner=303&subid=umr14&ref=partner.jpc.de and https://www.salzburg-windphilharmonic.at/de/dreikonigskonzert-2024-aus-den-bergen/ .
